those countries in northern europe that have this strong social safety net, high tax rates of the wealthy. i think especially among the young, they are not interested in marxist capitalism. they call it democratic socialism. they are not interested in the nationalization of industry or federal control of modes of production or state issued iphones or rationed products. they are interested in local economies and workers that can take control of their work environment, as well as larger programs like the green new deal. i think people on the left but are talking about socialism, as you suggest, are more interested in a local community. i think the antipathy toward socialism stems from that the u.s. has long had a very anti-socialist view in general and never wanted to use that word because it has always been a dirty word in american politics, conjuring ideas of state control of modes of production and industry. that is not what the young democratic-socialist's are all of them care about the example of nordic countries. host: the most recent polling from gallup from may, four of 10 americans

we will need taxes and federal taxes and state taxes. i actually think the problem is that in recent decades, as a community, we have decided to under tax people and corporations with the most resources. we saw this in the last election. mr. romney, who is one of the americans,nt of admitted that his tax rate was 14%. we have some of the largest corporations pay no income tax at all. we have warned buffett saying that it is a scandal that people as wealthy as him pay a lower tax rate than their secretaries. i do not think we're taxing too heavily. we are under taxing the wealthy and overtaxing everybody else. we're seeing this with angst like sales taxes. the more poor you are, the higher percentage to spend on consumer goods. if you pay higher sales taxes, that is a regressive tax. if you pay bridge tolls, which go up every year, they are essentially fees or taxes -- i do not think the problem is that we tax too much, it is that the kind of taxes we are using essentially tax the wrong people. that exacerbates poverty instead of renderin
